In this paper, we present a Web-based framework for interactive Sign Language using virtual signing agents. The main feature of this framework is that it is a full DOM-Integrated a...
We present a velocity-based model for realistic collision avoidance among virtual characters. Our approach is elaborated from experimental data and is based on the simple hypothesi...
We present a novel, generic framework and algorithm for hierarchical collision detection, which allows an application to balance speed and quality of the collision detection. We p...
In this thesis I present a virtual laboratory which implements five different models for controlling animats: a rule-based system, a behaviour-based system, a concept-based system...
